Johnny Ace. The name doesn’t get much more rock & roll than that, and neither does his story. Paul Simon referenced him in his 1983 song “The Late Great Johnny Ace” (a song in which John F. Kennedy and John Lennon were made honorary “Johnny Aces”). Dave Alvin offered a more straightforward recitation of his early exit in “Johnny Ace Is Dead.”
Johnny Ace is one of tragic legendary rock & roll figures who’s known less for their extraordinary talent than for the way they died.
